"blending" news and stories

To promote their new blender, the Total Blend, Blendtec decided to try and prove exactly how powerful it is. Instead of making the margaritas, smoothies or other crushed-ice concoctions that are normally favored by the blender industry when demonstrating functionality, Blendtec is using iPods, lightbulbs, coke cans and golf clubs to prove their product's superiority. By blending them.

Their Will it Blend? website has a huge collection of videos of the stunts that host Tom Dickson has attempted in the lab. Some of the top rated videos include whole oysters, Thanksgiving dinner and Cochicken.

Since the average person isn't - and shouldn't be - using their blender to chop up golf clubs, there is a section of videos that demonstrate safe blendings to try at home if you get the urge to blend after watching some of more extreme videos.
